Oh lovely flower, wild and free, have you fled and abandoned me? windswept plains do chill the bone, this poet grieves for you alone, soon winter comes to stalk the land, white blankets fall at his command, your dormant seed in darkest sleep, strong winter coat the life does keep, until soft rains your limbs unfold, your gentle face these eyes behold, the beauty of my love’s repose, sweeter than the garden rose, I wait in silence for that time, oh sweetest object of my rhyme. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Each couplet a glorious gem. Your analogies are superb. I enjoyed reading this more than once. You are truly a gifted poet! Ellie Belief is a truth held in the mind; faith is a fire in the heart. Joseph Fort Newton |

Happy wildflower to be the object of such a rhyme! This is extremely well done. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

Pegasus, this is beautiful...and carried me along all of the way... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Hi Pegasus A very beautiful poem indeed, flowed so beautifully especially loved this..... windswept plains do chill the bone, this poet grieves for you alone, Maree "If my words could blanket the skies and fill every corner and crevice of this earth, still this wouldn't be enough" "Maree Russo" |

...sometimes, in a magical garden, a wildflower will bloom out of season...reaching for the warmth of love... -so says the dancer of words "Come...dance with me, in my world of words." |

Oh my dear fickle poet friend how your mind does whirl and spend. When two steps back I read your read how then you called this flower a weed. Love and hate conveying ambigious needs which one yeilds to those your needs? |

hello, kindasorta....so, you noticed the paradox...lol...good..glad to see someone is on their toes..I could explain but, that would remove the mystery for you and the fun for me... the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |
